Last week the 39-year-old singer gave an emotional testimony in an LA court.
In it, she described her controversial conservatorship arrangement as "abusive" and likened it to being "sex trafficked".
She told the judge she had been fitted with a contraceptive device against her wishes and was barred from marrying boyfriend Sam Asghari.
I don’t understand why the judge ruled against Britney’s wishes. What does this woman have to do to get her life back?!

The singer's father, Jamie, has been her conservator since 2008.
However, he has not been in charge of her personal affairs since September 2019.
When he stepped down due to ill-health, he was replaced as conservator of Ms Spears's person on a temporary basis by Jodi Montgomery, the singer's care-giver.

In a court filing late on Tuesday evening, Jamie called for an investigation into Britney's claims.
Lawyers for Mr Spears said he was "concerned" by Britney's lawyer's request to make Ms Montgomery's position permanent.
The Californian court's decision however is not in response to that testimony, and instead relates to a previous request filed last November.
The next hearing in the case is set for 14 July.
